Extremist judges will not stop endangering the lives of pregnant people or people who may become pregnant—overturning Roe v. Wade, attacking medication abortion, threatening the future of IVF, and this week at SCOTUS, emergency abortion care.
Our lawyers are waging strategic fights that make clear what is at stake for people who can become pregnant and seek to bolster our fundamental rights to control our lives, futures, and destinies.

Women working full time, year round are typically paid less than men working full time, year round in every state. While white, non-Hispanic women typically make more than women of color, white, non-Hispanic women working full time, year round typically make only 80 cents for every dollar white, non-Hispanic men make. The wage gap for white, non-Hispanic women varies widely by state.
However, the wage gap for full-time, year-round workers doesn’t fully reflect the economic disparities faced by white, non-Hispanic women. The full-time, year-round wage gap leaves out those who were unemployed or out of the labor force for part of 2022, or who worked part time, even if they wanted full-time work. When part-time and part-year workers are included in the comparison, white, non-Hispanic women were typically paid only 74 cents for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men in 2022. This disparity varies widely by state.
